Charlotte Wilson
Music Host/ProducerCharlotte Wilson has been immersed in classical music all her life. Her parents were great music lovers, always had something playing on the radio or turntable, and she began on recorder and then piano before she can remember. Her grandparents, Frederick and Evelyn Page, were a celebrated pianist-painter couple at the center of New Zealand cultural life from the 1940s on – Freddy, widely connected in Europe and founding professor of piano at what is now the NZ school of music, was still performing in the 70s accompanying a steady stream of instrumentalists and singers in a house that was also filled with Eve’s paintings. Charlotte originally wanted to be a concert pianist but just didn’t quite have it, no matter how hard she practiced! She tried many other instruments slightly too late (violin, cello, clarinet) before discovering radio. Charlotte can be heard from 4-8pm weekdays and 10-2 on Saturdays.
